Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Twilight At The River In Tourane by Henri Emile Vollet was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in April 2016. The auction ended at the price of HKD 100,000.00 (€ 11,266.50), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of HKD 80,000.00 – 100,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Henri Emile Vollet - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work L'Examen Des Lettrés À Hué, Annam (The Scholar Examination At Hué, Annam), which sold at auction in October 2008 for HKD 275,000.00 (€ 27,972.72).
